Man, just fantastic! Helmet's off to ya!!

thanks rex! funny you should mention helmets, im sculpting that part as we speak!

Outstanding work so far mate.

The camo is fantastic & love the tracker screen

Looking forward to seeing the cover you`ve sculpted.

all done .......

Nice job Nickatron, looks much better than the original. Puts mine to shame now LOL

Darren

Any chance of full before and after? (I've never seen the McFarlane figure)

Even without the comparison pics, it's quite obvious that you had a LOT of talent with a brush! Damn good show, mate!

Cheers
Craig

sure no problem! and thanks for all the kind words guys

Fantastic! Seeing old | New side-by-side, yours almost jumps off the screen. I have one of these, but I can't find a Motion Tracker. Did I lose mine, or is that from something else/a scratchbuild?

Jay

Wow !!
That sure is some excellent work.
If I recall correctly I think the motion tracker was the variant figure.
Something like a couple per case.
Scott

Yeah there were 3 variations

There were a limited amount of spare shotguns so you could send off for it while supplies lasted.

It looks awesome.
Hey Brian, post a pic of your DC06 Hicks figure you won
